Just in case anyone wants to know. These are the duties of ordained ministers serving congregations in the ELCA, according to the Constitution of the ELCA. Failure to perform any of these tasks could, presumably, lead to removal from the roster or the ministry. Take note of #3 and #4 particularly.

“b. Each ordained minister with a congregational call shall, within the congregation:
1) offer instruction, confirm, marry, visit the sick and distressed, and bury the dead;
2) supervise all schools and organizations of the congregation;
3) impart knowledge of this church and its wider ministry through distribution of its periodicals and other publications;
4) endeavor to increase the support given by the congregation to the work of the churchwide organization and synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America;
5) install regularly elected members of the Congregation Council; and
6) with the council, administer discipline.”
